scripts: kernel-doc: Always increment warnings counter
Some warnings do not increment the warnings counter making the behavior of running kernel-doc with -Werror unlogical as some warnings will be generated but not treated as errors. Fix this by creating a helper function that always incrementing the warnings counter every time a warning is emitted. There is one location in get_sphinx_version() where a warning is not touched as it concerns the execution environment of the kernel-doc and not the documentation being processed. Incrementing the counter only have effect when running kernel-doc in either verbose mode (-v or environment variable KBUILD_VERBOSE) or when treating warnings as errors (-Werror or environment variable KDOC_WERROR). In both cases the number of warnings printed is printed to stderr and for the later the exit code of kernel-doc is non-zero if warnings where encountered. Simple test case to demo one of the warnings, $ cat test.c /** * foo() - Description */ int bar(); # Without this change $ ./scripts/kernel-doc -Werror -none test.c test.c:4: warning: expecting prototype for foo(). Prototype was for bar() instead # With this change $ ./scripts/kernel-doc -Werror -none test.c test.c:4: warning: expecting prototype for foo(). Prototype was for bar() instead 1 warnings as Errors Signed-off-by: Niklas Söderlund <niklas.soderlund@corigine.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220613090510.3088294-1-niklas.soderlund@corigine.comSigned-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
